Boost Your Business Success with Out of the Box Calls | My Experience

[tinawhite07]

I just started to make the Out of the box calls after 19 months being a consultant. I am always afraid of the phone so I don't pick it up if I don't think I need to. Well after a few calls of speaking to my guests about their products, I now LOVE making these calls. I always thought I'd be bothering them and instead everyone's been really pleasant and happy to share their love for what they purchased. I haven't been able to get any shows booked on my calendar from it yet, but I did get a call me in September for an October show.
Just wanted to share that my fear of picking up the phone to call people is no longer....they don't bite your head off, lol.:thumbup:

That's wonderful! Remember, every no is one call closer to a yes!

Tina-you inspire me! lol I just passed one year and have never made calls other than to hosts before their show and even then, it's usually an e-mail or Ipray for voicemail. Calling all my contacts is on my list of things to do and I'm going to do it this summer!! I'm so bad that I haven't even called people that have expressed interest in something on a drawing slip!! I'm a super star e-mailer, but that phone scares the heck out of me!

Too funny!!! I have always been the exact same way. I can email with the best of them and would pray for the voicemail too. I was even praying for voicemail today, but when I actually spoke to them it went easy . So I highly recommend it:thumbup:

Congratulations on conquering your fear of making Out of the Box calls! It can definitely be intimidating to pick up the phone and reach out to customers, but as you have experienced, it can lead to positive interactions and even potential bookings.I completely understand your initial hesitation and fear of bothering people, but as you have discovered, most customers are happy to share their love for the products they have purchased. It's great to hear that you have had pleasant conversations and that your fear of making calls is no longer holding you back.Even though you haven't booked any shows yet, keep making those calls and building those relationships with your customers. The more you reach out and connect with them, the more likely they are to think of you when they want to host a party or purchase more products.Thanks for sharing your success and keep up the great work! Happy cooking and selling!Best,
